Thule roof bars on 2009 Fit EX

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and was wondering if anyone has used the Thule roof bar system on the Fit Ex which of course has the glass roof.
I've looked through lots of old threads and found plenty on roof bars but nothing I could see mentioned being used on the Ex, lots of people seam to use Yakima in the states but here in England where I am they don't seam to be available.

Any help much appreciated

Cheers

Peter

I see no reason you can't, the thule's clip over the outermost edges of the roof so there is nothing about it that would interfere with the glass.

(wish they offered the glass roof here)

Thanks for the reply bensenvill, had assumed the ex in the US had a glass roof as well, we live and learn I guess!
Was thinking the same re location of the clamps, have looked at a few fitting videos on YouTube and looks clear of the main roof, just wanted someone to rubber stamp it by saying they have used the set up without problems
